Wow, people actually use that word?

[pseudogeek]

Doctorow actually used the word "saurian" to mean old in Truncat. I never knew people actually use that word that way. Unless I understood the word wrong? I mean, most people use it to describe some humanoid reptile thing/being (wonder why they don't just use reptilian instead of saurian).

(I know this is old news, but I just discovered that author today.)

I borrowed one of his books today \0/
How are you liking him so far?

(I find i need to not focus too hard on each words's meaning and just read, and i'm ok.)

I think I like his works so far. Going to try his novels after my final. Truncat was a good read.

(But Portal is attracting most of my attention now. Reading spoilers non-stop these days since I'm waiting for the price to drop before buying, so I probably won't be able to play it soon. Oh, and that I don't know who'll play with me on the co-op mode.)

(Also, I saw Pokemon SoulSilver with pokewalker at 6% off (35.99 instead of 39.99) on amazon.ca and it's freeshipping, should we buy it? It's still expensive, isn't it... I miss the 20$ and less games D:)
